Some reflections:
* Few clear-cut chances for either team, but I felt we were closer to winning it. Boro fans will be disappointed, they created almost nothing in terms of real goal-scoring oppurtinities.
* Defence has to be complimented, considering it was a clean sheet and a good point, but Mills felt a bit shaky at times. Nearly cocked up big time once, but put in some good challenges too. Bamba similarly always looks like he's lost control but rarely does, so I thought he was great tonight. Konchelsky good going forward but rarely got a cross in. Kasper didn't do anything wrong.
* Beckford didn't do much as far I could see, might be due to the injury. Schlupp lively when he came on.
* Vassell and King were both involved a lot, Vassell does a lot of running which is useful when we get somewhat static going forward sometimes.
* Abe still makes inexplicable errors sometimes, but he's good on the ball when he gets time.
* Middlesbrough town centre is a bit rough around the edges at night.
